THN SCOUTING REPORT:
ASSETS: Has outstanding offensive instincts and great mobility. Also owns a powerful point shot and the ability to quarterback a power play. |
FLAWS: Lacks ideal size for the blue-line position at the National Hockey League level. Also needs to improve his work without the puck. |
CAREER POTENTIAL: Offensive defenseman with big upside. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- His Favorite Things (NHL.com):NHL Team: Toronto Maple Leafs NHL Player: Columbus defenseman Kris Russell Shootout move: Slap shot Goal celebration: “Low key fist pump” Video game: NHL ‘09 Movie: Remember the Titans TV Show: SportsCentre Actor/Actress: Will Smith, Angelina Jolie Cartoon: Bugs Bunny Website: NHL.com Pump-up song: “In My Hands” by Fuel Restaurant: Red Lobster Sport (other than hockey): Football Activity away from the rink: Video games, hanging with the boys Breakfast food: Omelet Superhero: Spiderman • He patterns his game after NHL defensemen Brian Rafalski and Kris Russell “because both are considered undersized defensemen and are great offensively as well as responsible in their own end”. • He wears number six after former Toronto Maple Leaf Ron Ellis and if he could invite any three people to dinner he would choose: Muhammad Ali, Tiger Woods and Wayne Gretzky – “I think all are tremendous athletes, leaders and have had major impacts in their respective sports”. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- VIDEO: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PATTYB NOTES: Huge upside and is putting up some incredible numbers in the OHL, honestly looking at his number of assists is staggering to say the least. Although his size could cause some problems when he takes the leap to the NHL, any guy with this much offensive acumen from the blue line and who still is decent in his own zone has a long term future in the NHL |
